Hi,
I am looking to buy GPS navigation system for my car. I am bit confused buying Garmin 250W and 260W. Future shop is out of stock these days with no deals on these. I am considering better deals. I also grabbed hub-canada magazine which has some sellers selling these GPS..donno how reliable they are in terms of warranty/exchange/refunds. I prefer browsing couple of shops before buying the expensive stuff. Can anybody tell me if they have found good deals and sellers in GPS. I don't mind if you also refer other brands.

250W doesn't have text to speech but 260W does...thats all

Don't go for mp3 player, viewing photo stuff etc. It is never useful, GPS is meant for one that find your way. Any feature relating to finding your way maybe useful IMO.

I have 250W but if I have chance I would get 260W.
